Had a report of a large number of Eagles this morning. Grabbed a couple of cameras and went - most had left, but four remained - unfortunately at a distance on private land. D 7200 with 75-300 - the second with D 750 and 80-400[ATTACH=full]1289360[/ATTACH]

Golden eagle?

Not sure - hard (at least for me) to differentiate Juvenile Bald Eagle from a similar age Golden. There were other mature Bald Eagles in the immediate area. Good question, though - this link Juvenile Bald Eagles & Golden Eagles - Differences - Hancock Wildlife Foundation - possibly the feet shade it toward immature Bald.

Good info in that post. I was basing my thoughts on the bill color, which is yellow in an adult baldie. But not in an immature baldie, which is probably what you have here.
